I think of you often, including today, your birthday. I still miss you, but I know you are watching over Steve, Lisa, Cregg and Scott for you are truly God's angel
Sharon Rose Seymour, 75, of Baltimore, MD and Harwich Port, MA, died of heart failure, Tuesday morning, March 27th. Sharon was born to the late Russell and Dorothy Rose, March 21st 1943, in Camden, New Jersey. Sharon graduated from White Plains High School in 1961, Penn State University in 1965 and received her Masters in Communications at Fairfield University in 1981. Sharon became an ordained minister in 2000.
Sharon was a loving wife, incredible mother and grandmother and a spiritual guide for many. She worked as a real estate agent, music producer, a healer and a therapist. During the early years of marriage, she moved 12 times in the first 14 years and ultimately settled in Ruxton, Maryland for the next 35. In all these years, the Cape was always her true home. She lived to make anyone she came in contact with happy and fulfilled. She always had a smile, compassion and grace that made all she encountered feel warm and welcome.
Other than her family, she loved Cape Cod, sunrises, the beach, dancing with her husband and large family gatherings filled with music, fun and laughter. She adored roses and watching the local birds wherever she was.
Sharon is lovingly remembered by her devoted husband of 53 years, Stephen, and three children, Scott Seymour (Julie) of Fairfield, Connecticut, Cregg Seymour (Crady) of Baltimore, Maryland, and Lisa LeBlanc (Michael) of Redding, Connecticut. She is also survived by nine grandchildren, Stephen, Ryan, Cooper, Olivia, Charlotte, Parker, Riley, Alex and Trevor. She loved her dogs throughout her life (Sin, Bear, Joss, Glory Days and Tucket).
A private family service will be held in her honor at a future date. In lieu of flowers, the family is requesting that donations be made to the Cape Cod Health Care Foundation – Cape Cod Hospital. https://support.givetocapecodhealth.org/sslpage.aspx?pid=298 (Please choose Cape Cod Hospital from the drop down and mention "In Memory of Sharon Seymour" in the Tribute Information section.)

I think of you often, and cherish the times we spent together. Time has a cruel way of changing those we love, and an even crueler way of taking them from us. You and Steve were good friends with me and Jerry. Now you are gone, and Steve no longer remembers me after 38 years of friendship. I truly do miss both of you, but know you are watching over your family and giving Steve your love. I always said that you were a very spiritual person as opposed to religious...and you liked that. So may your spirit surround us until we all meet again. ♥️

Happy Belated Birthday Mom
As each year goes by, it doesn't get any easier. We miss you more than ever. I have shed a few tears these last couple of days for me mostly, as I know you wouldn't want me to shed any for you. My heart hurts and misses you.
For your Birthday, I had a nice day visiting with Dad. We walked the beach as much as we could as his back is really bothering him and he is not moving well, spent time throwing rocks in the water for the dog. He loved that, looking for skipping stones and tossing them for the dog. It was a beautiful day with blue sky and calm waters, pretty spectacular spot you picked out for all of us. He misses you terribly and is looking for you in the house every day. Know your spirit is there for him and all of us. I put flowers around the house the way you always did. Dad was very happy to see roses, tulips and hyacinths around this morning when he awoke. When we are together and living every day we take things for granted, I knew how special you were when you were here with us...but never enough to know now that you are not here. Life has a funny way of doing that, getting to caught up in the moment and not paying attention to the things that really matter. You left us much too early. You are and have always been the glue...it is missed. I am hopeful now that we can finally be back in the house with Dad that we can bring some of the spirit back. It has been a rough year.
We had a couple of milestones this year as well as some coming up with your grand kids and know you would have been proud. I think of you every day and feel your love in my heart and know that in each one of us is a part of you. I see that in Stephen, Ryan, and Olivia every day.
Words are never enough to share my thoughts and love. Thank you, thank you, thank you...never said it enough when you were here. Please know, I love you with all of my heart and appreciate everything you have done for all of us. Your life long devotion, dedication, support and the love you shared with us every day.
The little things are still the thing I miss the most, you always knew how to make things so special. Miss you and Love you lots...Happy Birthday.

I met Steve when we were teenagers in Chatham. We shared many common interests, such as fishing, sailing, and driving my Jeep on North Beach. Steve had some crazy notions, such as waterskiing entirely around Monomoy Point without falling, and building a ski jump in front of their family home on Pleasant Bay and Round Cove. We actually even water skied in and out of Round Cove in front of Steve’s summer family home. Fewer boats then… and no water police.
The best Seymour family event was at Steve’s parents, Dan and Louise, annual clambake, which was held on their beach. Steve and I would spend days collecting driftwood for the fire, selecting special rocks to heat the clambake, and digging holes in the sand for the barrels. On clambake day, Willard Nickerson would arrive in his skiff from his fish market and pull up on the beach. His skiff was full of steamers, beautiful lobsters and very special seaweed for the “bake.” Steve would start the fire around sunrise, and the special stones were ready for the bake by early afternoon. Dan and Louise then entertained dozens of guests, all of whom had a great time digging through the delectable “treasures”. It was a feast like no other.
Like many summer boys growing up together, Steve and I lost touch over the years. Life gets in the way.
Then, two years ago, my wife Mary Ellen and I, spent a fabulous afternoon with Steve on his boat. We traveled across Nantucket Sound from Allen’s Harbor to Chatham Inlet in a strong Southwest wind with plenty of spray. It was like old times, fishing together and challenging the elements. It felt great to be together again.
After the boat ride, we joined Sharon at home, and finally had a chance to visit with a person we hardly knew. Sharon was so warm and gracious, we felt as if we had known her all our lives.
Steve is a very lucky guy! Fifty three years with such a fantastic lady!

Long before my children picked spouses, Sharon gave my advice. She told me to love the person my child married as much as I loved my child. My daughter just celebrated her 10th anniversary and my son his 4th. I have thought about her wise words often. Sharon was a loving example for everyone she knew. My heartfelt condolences to her precious family.

I feel so lucky to have walked on the path of life with Sharon for the time that our lives crisscrossed back and forth over each other. She had a lovely way of making you feel welcome and loved, as it is mentioned above. Like everyone else, I am shocked and saddened by the loss of such a beautiful, loving soul. She is on to the next great adventure, probably just as shocked as we are to find herself there.
Like so many others, I will miss her. I can't help thinking that if we each could pass forward the contented happiness and love she gave us, the world would be a better place. I will try to remember that for myself.
My heart is with you, Stephen and the rest of your beautiful, if heartbroken, family. Love and strength to each of you.
Love, Jen

Sharon Rose Seymour enlightened me. Her generosity is awe inspiring. Her faith in the power of music to heal hearts, minds and souls helped raise me as a person and as a singer songwriter. As a music producer she based her creative decisions on the truth and encouraged me to do the same. May Sharon's loving example help to make our heavy hearts a little lighter. Sincere condolences and hugs to Stephen and the Seymour family.

Many times I have said what a remarkable and well versed woman Sharon was. Many times I have felt honored that she included me in her circle of friends. As a couple, it was a delight to share time with Sharon and Steve. Individually it was the same. Sharon helped my granddaughter overcome her extreme fear of dogs. I will forever be grateful to her for that. I loved the clips she would share with me of the grandchilren''s recitals, rowing events, and accolades published in papers that I do not get. She shared recipes of candy that she made with her granddaughter, and always delighted in passing along the achievements and fun times she shared with each of them. I truly loved Sharon and will miss her dearly. My memories of her will make me smile with love. Women should strive to be like her. She made the world a better and happier place. ♡

Dear Seymour Family, We have been blessed to get to know Sharon and her husband Stephen and their family for the last twenty one years as their grandchildren have performed in our concerts and musicals throughout these years. She always had a smile and loved the music in song and on stage. She loved her grandchildren and we continue to treasure each one of them along with their parents. May God Bless the Seymour Family in these days ahead and may all of you know that you are loved and held in high regard by everyone here at FCDS. Our prayers are with each one of you, most especially Stephen with the loss of his beautiful wife, and with the entire family. Love will help the most as you go forward. With great respect for the whole family, Mary Nelson & Jim Balmer

I met a girl...
April 4, 2018
On November 2nd of 1995 I met a girl named Lisa Seymour with whom I would very soon find myself completely and totally in love. Becoming engaged and married soon thereafter were some of the best and brightest moments of my life.
Many things about Lisa attracted me (or better said, grabbed me) at the depths of my soul. One of these magic traits was her complete and total devotion to her family. The way she talked about her parents and brothers, the experiences they shared, the respect they had for each other, made me want to sign-up. The life she had growing up -- I wanted this for OUR children. The love she experienced was what I envisioned when starting a family.
Lisa is her own person, for sure, but much of what makes her special is due in some part to her amazing mother’s influence. Sharon had the native ability to nurture her children (and ours) with compassion and love. She always treated them as people first, deserving the full respect that any person deserves. She also knew how to show those she met courtesy, grace and an attention that made them feel they were the only one in the room. She knew how to entertain like the best of them, kings and queens and CEOs, as if she was Emily Post and Julia Child combined. By her careful attention to the utmost level and use of civility and manners, she showed those around her that she respected them with courtesy and kindness. It was these and many more traits Sharon passed down to Lisa.
In all of these things, living with my beloved bride every day, I will continually be reminded of the powerful and loving influence of Sharon Rose Seymour. Her impact on my wife, and our children likewise, will live on. She has made her mark and it will continue, powerfully and lovingly day after day for the rest of our days. I will always love you, Sharon. You and Stephen are a huge driver of my happiness on this earth, and I’m forever grateful to you for that. Please rest in peace, but also hurry back soon.
Sending you all my love, Michael
I Miss You Mom

I thought of you with love today,
but that is nothing new.
I thought about you yesterday,
and days before that too.
I think of you in silence
I often speak your name.
All I have are memories,
and your picture in a frame.
Your memory is my keepsake,
with which I'll never part.
God has you in his keeping,
I have you in my heart.
They say there is a reason
April 3, 2018
They say there is a reason,
They say that time will heal,
But neither time nor reason,
Will change the way I feel,
For no-one knows the heartache,
That lies behind our smiles,
No-one knows how many times,
We have broken down and cried.
We want to tell you something
So there won't be any doubt,
You are so wonderful to think of,
But so hard to live without.
